You might get a bunch of replies in General, but Rifle will give you more useful replies to your question about how to adjust for your new suppressor. The mod that moved it did you a favor.

Even if they weren't doing you a favor by moving it to where you should get more authoritative help to resolve your blowby problem, they were doing you a favor my moving it to the applicable Rifle forum instead of closing it or deleting it as being in the wrong place.

The other option would have been to move it to Gunsmithing since the condition you describe may be unsafe and might result in damage to your rifle or to you. You'd have certainly seen fewer replies, but they would have almost all been useful.

Good luck with finding a solution to your problem.

It might not be obvious Sigman, but the "Moved:" line in the original forum is always a link to the thread in its new location. So it was never really gone, you simply failed to click on it.
